I have used a command like the below with success in the past:
$ ffmpeg -i avfile.mkv -i srtfile.srt -i metadata.txt \ -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map 1 -map_metadata 2 \ -c:v libx264 [ various options ] \ -c:a copy \ -c:s srt \ -c:d copy \ out.mkv Maybe something like that will work for you. John On 10/12/2020 12:29 PM, George Welch wrote:
Howdy, I need to start with a movie file that has audio and video, and to reencode the video and add subtitles and chapter markers. I can add the chapters in a first pass, and then add the subtitles in a second pass, and that works fine. But I can't seem to find the right command to add subtitles and chapters in one pass. For example, here is a sequence that does work: $ ffmpeg -i avfile.mkv -i metadata.txt \ -map 0:v -map 0:a -map_metadata 1 \ -c:v libx264 [ various options ] \ -c:a copy \ temp.mkv $ ffmpeg -i temp.mkv -i srtfile.srt \ -map 0:v -map 0:a -map 1:s \ -c:v copy \ -c:a copy \ -c:s srt \ out.mkv However, I would like to skip the intermediate file. Here is the command I am trying which does *not* work: $ ffmpeg -i avfile.mkv -i srtfile.srt -i metadata.txt \ -map 0:v -map 0:a -map 1:s -map_metadata 2 \ -c:v libx264 [ various options ] \ -c:a copy \ -c:s srt \ out.mkv Can anyone tell me a command that will work, and hopefully explain what I have wrong?
